In Part 3 of our series on government-funded clinical trials, we shift the focus to the upsides of working in publicly funded research. From greater patient diversity and broader public health impact to mission-driven work and long-term study follow-through, we highlight what makes this space both rewarding and unique.

We also explore what kind of professionals thrive in this environment. Is it the detail-oriented? The mission-focused? The ones who care deeply about equity in access to care?

Tune in as we explore why some coordinators and investigators choose this path—and why they stay.
